Close DEC - It is supposed to be 'My heart is with the sea.' At least that is what the girl that did the elvish told me it was. Hopefully it was or I have a typo on my leg permanently!!!!

My father died in 1998 and he wanted to be taken back to the sea side town he grew up in to be buried. And per his request, we buried him at sea at a private beach owed by his best friend. I was close to my dad and I wanted something to pay tribute to him that not everyone could see and know what it said (like Dad!) so I did Elvish. Plus Elvish are magical and beautiful and I wanted something special to honor him. I almost had Sell Ada instead (Daddy's girl) but I decided to go the more mature route.

No, Viv. I didn't do the art. I found it in a catalog for a tshirt six years before I got the tattoo and carried in my wallet until I got up the nerve to do the tattoo!

No kidding! How can we use a language without a second person plural?! ... Unless, of course, all ya'll count Texan as real English.


When I first heard ya'll I thought it was genious ... I had spent years wondering how English speakers dealt without second person plural. Then I come here and I start working at the uni for a Spanish professor from Oklahoma, and I find out about ya'll!

... I use it in my Spanish classes! My students think I'm joking at first, but by the end of the semester they're referring to second person plural as ya'll Laughing !

My attempts at southern accent are horrible, though Wink .
